2007 Pinot Noir

Four Boys™ Vineyard

Santa Lucia Highlands

Four Boys Vineyard is the name we gave to the four small Pinot Noir vineyards we have at the winery that, coincidentally, matches the number of sons I have. Our vineyards are aptly named Anthony, Stephen, Robert, and John. Planted to the famous “La Tache” clone of Pinot Noir, with origins from Burgundy, as well as several Dijon clones, these vineyards rival the best within the Santa Lucia Highlands appellation. This jammy and complex wine has deep concentrated aromas of ripe black cherry, spice, and a hint of smoke. The full, lush mouth feel follows layered flavors of candied plum and vanilla, reflecting the depth of the fruit and lavish use of oak. Beautifully balanced, it offers good body, rich texture, and a long, lingering finish. Grilled meats or hearty bistro makes for a perfect match.

Accolades

93 Points, Editor's Choice - Wine Enthusiast
"Only 208 cases were produced of this exceptionally ripe, attractive Pinot Noir. It’s big in cherry, raspberry, currant, cola, cocoa, raisin, spice and sweet sandalwood flavors that are framed in rich tannins and brightened with crisp acidity. Yet it’s young and freshly primary. Should begin to resolve after 2010, if you can keep your hands off." Cellar Selection. — Steve Heimoff
